Scripting Languages

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.

Need a Windows batch script (not PowerShell) that when I run today (say it's 18 Jan 2019 today), would lik eto
extract out a list of users where the date in the file is more than 31 days from today's date. So output will be:

I need help creating a PowerShell script to pull a list of user names from Active Directory using each client/users First, Middle, and Last names to find each user in AD. I don't know how difficult this may be, but if somebody can help with this issue, I would appreciate it.

I have a Tkinter application (python 2.7) that copies , configures , remove files. During this operation, I would like to pop up a please wait message box without any buttons while the process is running to inform the users What is the best way to do this.
Thank you for your Quick Prompts.

I've got an interesting one for all the PowerShell crew. I often go to websites for a download of an ISO. The site offers many mirror URLs. What would be cool is to copy those URLs to the clipboard and pipe them to a PS script that will attempt to determine which mirror has the least latency. Any gurus out there willing to bite? I think many techs would appreciate such a script/tool in their arsenal.

I am trying to learn how to use D3.js so that I can produce graphs for visualized data on my web page which is based on using Javascript.
But I am struggling trying to get an axis scale correctly rendered.
Below is the code where I draw the graph and "attempt" to put the X & Y scales on the axis. However, if you look at the attach JPG file, the X axis is being drawn at the TOP of the graph, not the bottom where it was supposed to be. I was calling the d3.axisBottom() as you can seen from the code. Also, the Y axis is being placed about 10 pixels inside the left side of the graph, again even though I am using the d3.axisLeft() class. Again you can see this in the attached file screen shot.

Hi ..
I am going to backup Windows 10. before start the backup i want to cleanup the system
example: removing all the already accessed remote shared folders list (example, doing "\\" in windows explorer lists already access shared drives)...etc.
what is the best safest way to do this...

I have a Linux system that I need to modify few configuration files while the system is not be running.
For this reason, I have booted from a ISO file, therefore, the root directory is ISO not the local drive.
Since the script tries to modify few files with the fixed path /etc/, /var,...etc. I need to chroot the local disk.
what is the best way to do this operation, do I need to change any permissions or take ownership of directories or files.

This is what my question is about to use the application pool identity as anon user
%systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config /app.name:www.%1/ -section:anonymousAuthentication /username:"" --password
will /app.name:www.%1 work as site name?

or should it be
%systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config www.%1 -section:anonymousAuthentication /username:"" --password

This is going to be used in a proof of concept project and I want to obscure the real password. I was thinking of either replacing the whole password with a set of characters or maybe keeping the first and last two characters and replacing the rest with a set of characters. Maybe Xs. Looking for suggested modification.

I have a setup of 2 PC's connected in Master and Slave configuration through a network cable with Windows 7 OS on both PC's. I need to stop a exe program and do a replace of the corrupted files in a saved location and restart the exe program through vbscript with progress bar. Can someone help with a vbscript or guidance? I am not a programmer. The progress should be shown on the master

I am looking to copy and paste data from one xlsx sheet to a new excel sheet using VBScripts . Could please some one help me using Vb script to paste exact contents from excel-input.xlsx to a new excel excel-output,xlsx on sheet2 and rename sheet2 to DataSet.
